bash: jq:command not found

[nazia_akhtar]

I am working on bitbucket pipelines using javascript/nodejs as the language.

I need 'jq' command in my script but it throws error of jq: command not found

Below is my bitbucket pipelines.yml file

image: node:10.15.3
pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
        name: "prova default"
        script:
          - echo "Deploying version is $VERSIONRELEASE"
          - ls
          - mkdir build
          - touch build/test.json
          - ls build
          - apt-get install -y jq
          - declare -x VERSION=$(jq -r '.version' package.json)
          - echo "package.json version is $VERSION"



+ apt-get install -y jq

Hi Luca,

I had the same issue.

Before you can install jq, you have to make an "apt-get update"

Example:

- apt-get update 
- apt-get -y install jq

Hi @nazia_akhtar ,

Thank you for your question!

You can add it with the next command before using jq:

apt-get install -y jq
